Wah ylucy yours sound like a really good deal

Very nice! point block 5 room has got a nice layout really. I'm also curious.. open concept balcony then rain will come in? Or you putting awnings?

hahah touching should be ok ba.. LOL touch touch then hold the book up to see against the light... LOL think ID see liao also scared.

I do hope it turns out nice. It looks really nice in the mag. wheee Will ask contractor if have extra costs. bleh

hahahah ya mine also. And sometimes BIL call to find my sister he call from oversea so call fixed line the connection is better. Haiz everytime people ask me for my home number I have to try to find it in my HP Your mother so cute... LOL modern la modern What nonsense. He think what... even young kids also know how to plug in how can it be you all who make it faulty?! Rubbish. Only 3 days and liddat. haiz At least he say FOC. if not FOC I think you will go mad also. Anyhow do things still blame people. yucks. Hope everything will be resolved for you soon!!!!!!

That might be true also. did you read the regulations that they give when you become buyer? They stated all the stuff inside... I go look for the file.

hahah YES must hack off la. too old fashion liao. unless building a retro theme

Ya I also envious of the service balcony sia. My mom LOVES that.

Some IDs can be practical also. If you need to have something done to suit your lifestyle then you can convey your needs to the ID and a good one would help you merge your needs into your house without spoiling the design or theme. Those that tell you this cannot that cannot... are no good. But seriously if you don't have ANY idea what you want then an ID is better. Contractor cannot start from scratch and do design for you. but if you have an idea they can help you.

DOUBLE? mmm ok ok... I will ask my contractor. *sob*

Thinking of mixing metallic champagne colour with some gloss white and a darker surface... saw that combi in a magazine very nice. hahaha

hehe no no the $10.50/psf tile is for the foyer/the hallway leading from the main door. Becos of this problem I posted earlier.

IDs are suppose to come up with designs to suit a theme you want. Which means you just tell them the theme and the colour scheme you want and they do the designing. But these days, not many IDs are really IDs. They tend to copy and paste from previous projects they have done and stuff. Very few are REAL IDs. But if you have zero idea of what you want this is a good way to go. Contractors don't come up with fancy designs nor 3D stuff for you to view your flat. But if you have some ideas you can present it to them and they can still give you some ideas on how to improve your flat. So if you do some research and like to design your flat then you can get a contractor. Contractors are a little cheaper as they dun have all the additional frills and stuff. My contractor also design and drew (by hand) my kitchen and my shoe cabinet to let us see and approve. In terms of work, both of them can do the same work... cos at the end of the day, an ID has contractors working for him.

.... looks like white full leather can bring quite a bit of problems.. but it's sooo nice... I use a leather cleaner on my white leather wallet but I think it's never really clean. haiz

is it??? My contractor never say anything about not choosing those le... I ask him... *SOB* WAHHH thanks for the tips mmycheng. I'm so glad i have the samples at home I can try!!! Hi Angel! Ya lor I was so surprised that he agreed... maybe cos 5-6 pieces only so he anything la. He's been very good... Yes yes it's so nice to be able to test on the materials hor... think if I took on the other ID I was shortlisting I have to do it in their office. BLEH.

WAHH I love the layout of your house! It's perfect! With a service balcony somemore. Ya the condition not good la and they have weird stuff around but some reno will make it very nice!!!! Congrats!!

Wah when you got the house it was in good condition liao wor? Then you din do much ma! So nice!! I love your sofa! How much and where did you get ah?

whoopee ok ok i go try

Welcome... well... at least rejoice in the fact that you can use the money you saved for renovation ba! $20k can pay for simple overhaul!

GOOD NEWSSSS We're getting the 10.50/psf tile for the foyer without any topup!! YAY YAY YAY! and my contractor left all the laminate samples and paint samples at our house for us to slowly choose over the next few days!! The solid surface top colours... The gloss laminates.. The metallic laminates I like. hahahahahaha

huh... so sad I cannot see. I HATE IE!

wah but they lowered the top up cash so much... no choice ba Even with a signed agreement there is no where you can go with the document. Our lawyers advised us on this. Any private agreement you sign is not recognised by any govt body and the worst scenario is if HDB chooses to take action against people who do have private agreements. She says she's seen it before. Just be careful ba.

The $10.50/psf tile from Italy

Wah good for you! And good for us too hahah means we get to see more of your DIY stuff!!! COOLL!

WOW yours is the perfect ceiling for a chandelier like that! Thanks for the collection of photographs for kitchens too! I'll see see that!
